Every Job is Important Color Sheets

Labor Day is a day we honor those who make the world a better place through their hard work. Print out the color sheets and make copies. Have your children pick one to color and then explain how they think this job might be important and how it makes the world a better place to live in. (The color sheets are available to members only.)

Occupation Charades

Place your children into teams of twos and give each child a piece of paper with a description of the work being performed. Let the teams take turns acting out the scene and have the other children guess what they are doing. Remind your children that they can't say anything while they are acting out the story.

Clothesline Clues to Jobs People Do
- Can you identify the job a person does from the clothes he or she wears? Children are given two pages of clothes and equipment for each occupation from which they can try to identify the occupation. Turn the page and the person wearing the clothes and using the equipment is revealed.

Take time to ask your children what they think each item or tool is used for on the job. Ask them what occupation their father and mother perform, what they wear to work, and what tools they use to perform their jobs.
